I want to thank you and the participants for a most enjoyable hour or so. I am currently re-reading the trilogy, but many, many things I didn't know about or notice have been discussed here. I don't know that I will be a regular participant, but I certainly will be a regular reader of this thread.
It is heartening to know that there are so many who love this book, and it is very nice on a rainy, chilly evening to read this discussion, which reminds me of friends chatting around a fire.
Thank you to all of you!
